Tariff status?

>>60584596 (OP)
By far the most worst and most effective strategy the monopolies could do right now is give away their food for free to immigrant households. Getting all their kids hooked on tasty treats will create a generational sales foundation that is immensely difficult to break, but will also partially disrupt the multicultural food restaurant industries.

Posting again because no reponse last time

Securities lending program: broker keeps contacting me via my account asking if I want to loan out my stock at 69% per month. What's the deal, is this worth it? I have CRWV in several accounts so its looking some fun money can be made, I might consider buying more shares to participate on the monthly gains.

>>60584701
Sounds like a scam, they don't just hand out 69% gains for nothing

For a long time I thought "Jane Street" is a euphemism, like people say "Main Street" vs Wall Street

I didn't realize it was an actual company

>>60584600

>>60584707
>Sounds like a scam, they don't just hand out 69% gains for nothing
The program is legit as far as I can tell. The pic is from the web application from inside my account. I have been checking into it more and see other brokers do it also, but the examples I saw online offered low interest. Because of the volatility of this stock (its a recent IPO) I can make 500 to about 1000 per week selling options on the same stock, or even swing trading the same stock. I am not arguing for it, just checking to see how many have tried it and were offered that high of a rate.

>>60584707
>they don't just hand out 69% gains for nothing
also, if I understand the pic I posted, that 69% is per month, not annual.

>>60584721
So they give a very high rate because it's difficult to find stocks to short?

Would you be able to take it back and sell or are you locked from touching it for a month?

Keep in mind there's an issue with dividends on loaned stocks, the broker will typically give you the equivalent of the dividend but it's taxed as regular income (it's not a dividend) and can cause issues.

>>60584701
I know there are brokerages that lend out your shares to shorters. But I thought they only gave like a 2% interest.. Europoor here

He's back.

>>60584746
Info from Broker says I can sell stock any time, no restriction (I cannot sell covered calls when the stock is loaned to them). Apparently this particular stock is hard to borrow to short, its a new company. They create a separate account for me, put the stock in that account and put an equivalent $ amount in my account as a place holder, I would still get dividends (CRWV is too new so it does not pay one). The stock is being loaned by broker to short the stock - I don't care about the stock or the company I just want to make the most money off of it. I just never heard of this before. Can I get a list of the most wanted stocks to short? Maybe I buy some of those and loan them out while the interest rate is so high.

>>60584751
>I thought they only gave like a 2% interest
That is what I thought, and from the examples I found on the web the people said the interest rate sucked, that is why I am surprised it is so high on the info the broker provided to me. This would be in a non-taxable account so it simplifies the taxes (none) and remves the PIL (payment in liue of) payments for dividends (tax issues) which can be an issue in taxable account.

>>60584746
Crwv has insane borrow rates because its overvalued AF and everybody wants to short it.

Lending shares is basically paying for the bullets of your would be assassin. Of course you can hedge by buying puts and covered calls.

For our American friends, VWCE is the Vanguard global ETF (including US)
and AVWS is the Avantis small cap value ETF (like AVUV but global including US).

>>60585043
>>60585095
How does that work? Does OPEC have stores of oil that motivates them to keep production low and prices high? Or is it mostly production to selling immediately? Because more production seems like more money

>>60585113
it's complicated but opec largely sells what they make and they sell at a rate that maximizes the benefit to the members and the stability of the market. It exists to prevent a self destructive race to the bottom and provides a stable block of producers for the consumer nations.

Buy SBSW

>>60585113
OPEC has spare capacity to pump and they intentionally keep it lower than the maximum to attempt to drive prices up.

But not all OPEC members abide by those rules, and there is a lot of non-OPEC capacity that cannot be stopped by the cartel, so its influence over oil prices has dramatically diminished in recent years.

It can get complicated, for example Kazakhstan is an OPEC member but its oil is pumped by international companies (I think Chevron and Exxon) so it cannot stop them.

It looks good but reading about it, it seems you must for sure hold and never sell because its overperformance comes in very short bursts.

A RARE 25% SUB QUARTER S&P ADVANCE

The S&P finished the 4th of July week at 6279.35 and is now up 6.76% for 2025 and 13.4% over the last 12 rolling months (July4-July4), currently residing at an All Time High for at least the three day weekend.

You may recall that the S&P experienced an 18.9% selloff from the Feb 19th Close of 6144.15 to the April 8th Close of 4982.77, exceeding 20% if measured vs the April 8th intraday Low of 4910.42.

From that 4982.77 Closing Low on April 8th, the S&P has now advanced 26.0%, doing so in less than a Quarter, 86 calendar day (April8-July3) to be precise.

Looking back through post 1950 history, I can only find five prior occasions in which the S&P has advanced 25% in less than a Quarter and none of those five occasions were anywhere near an impending top.

Certainly, one would prefer to have more than five data points from which to draw conclusions upon which to base one's market exposure but the magnitude and uniformity of the advances across the following 12 months in those five cases appears worthy of our respect.

All five cases were positive over the following 1 to 12 months, up at least 19.2% one year later, 31.7% on average.

None of the five cases experienced a 4% drawdown as measured from the signal Date.

Just booked hotels for a road trip to Colorado for a company conference. Thought about flying but realized the company reimbursement rate for mileage means that I’ll profit off driving.

Unfortunately I had to book a shitty motel in a small town to save money, hopefully a roach doesn’t crawl in my ear.

Also just realized there is absolutely no restaurants nearby the hotel except chain slop; guess I am gonna have to break my NY resolution of not eating sneed oil.

Well fuck.

never been to CO. how is it?

>>60585205
It's not so bad, last 5 years VWCE is up 80% while VUAA is up 110%

It definitely underperformed the US-only but who knows if the US will continue overperforming vs the rest of the world. Besides, VWCE is still like 60-70% US.

>>60585218
Denver (where conference is) absolutely sucks ass.

>>60585226
Yea last time I went to a street fair and got some HECKIN TACOS from a sketchy looking van; they were pretty good. Also got some fresh fruit from some lesbians and stepped over a homeless dude on the sidewalk; quintessential Denver experience. But I was with a good friend of mine so it was all good.

>>60585229
The “Boulder mafia” (rich libs in Boulder that run the political scene) have taken over state politics over the past 20 years.

If you’re chuddy like me then Grand Junction on the western side is still nice. Nowhere in CO is affordable but I guess it’s all your perspective; coming from CA you’re used to it. Me living in Louisiana, I think the prices are insane.

I used to have to travel to Denver for work a lot. It's fine. There's some fun stuff to do if you have time. There's a decent air museum in Lowry. The zoo is alright too. You can tour the Coors brewery (NYSE: $TAP, down 13.8% YTD) and get samples. If you have half a day to kill, you can drive up to Rocky Mountain National Park and drive the road that goes over the the top of the mountains. There's some really good views. The visitor center at the top is pretty decent too, and I saw this cool guy last time I was up there.

That's one of them. I think they'll stay stupid profitable until crypto does another major pullback, and then they go insolvent because they cannot service the debt with crypto as collateral.

Countries tend to consolidate towards two party systems due to the lack of unity that having too many factions results in, at least for their respective executive branches. It's just too much infighting.

The US has a two-party system (plus libertarian) that tends to veer towards the following:
>conservative
Less diverse grouping that relies on blood and community cohesion. Their wealthy and powerful are highly consolidated in traditional industries, government, and military. Has a reputation for nationalistic populism. Largest strength and weakness is the high prioritization towards community cohesion, and will protect or cover-up their bad actors for the sake of social harmony. Very prone to being undermined by internal subversion because of this and is incredibly hard to root out once entrenched.
>liberal
Collection of several diverse groups that don't actually agree with each other. Their wealthy are highly consolidated in the latest high-value labor sectors. Has a reputation for social populism. Largest strength and weakness is its demand to be ideologically congruent due to the natural disunity that comes with diversity, and is keen to excommunicate outsiders. Very prone to schisms and losing mass support despite population advantage. That tendency towards excommunication cultivates way more extremist factions.

>>60585937
I think you're over-estimating the cohesion conservatives have. When you get right down to it, republicans and democrats are both more like the coalitions they have in Europe, though much more informal. Republicans for example contain libertarians, northeastern businessmen, Christian Conservatives, both war-hawks and isolationists, and recently a very specific type of silicon valley moguls. While there might be some overlap between these groups, most of their agendas are unrelated to each other or even contradictory, and they're only really united by an opposition to the agendas of the democrat blocs. Most of the focus on social cohesion that you see is really nothing more than a way of appeasing the groups who demand it, while the ones who don't particularly care for it (libertarians especially) get ignored. If any of these groups ascend into greater political importance, than you would see a greater focus on their agendas at the expense of others, and the others will either take it, try to seize the reigns again, or switch sides to see if they can get a better deal.

>>60586092

American automakers went all-in on trucks and SUVs again, and literally have damn near no fallbacks on smaller cars anymore. They've ceded the market to the Koreans and Japanese. Oil shocks won't benefit them, and the EV supply chain makes hybrid cars in short supply.

>>60586234

Not true. Only when looking at models in the US is this true. Globally American manufacturers and their subsideries have plenty of fuel efficient models that can be imported/made in the US. They also have designs from the past that could be redesigned for today. American car companies sell gas guzzling trash in the US because they can. Not because it's all they have.

Am I insane for thinking about purchasing LEAPs on GameStop because of their pivot towards becoming a bitcoin treasury company could catalyze if the Fed really does cut rates at the end of this year? MicroStrategy clearly benefits being able to have more investors willing to purchase convertible bonds, thus GameStop would benefit as well. I feel like companies emulating MicroStrategy are going to inevitably create a bubble. Their financial engineering is tantamount to getting leveraged returns on BitCoin appreciation. Imagine how that goes during a period of insane greed.

And Americans generally hate global cars. They also take time to federalize. America/Canada is probably the largest Galapagos market in the world where it's worth making cars specifically for them, instead of telling the rest of the world to live with what they've got.

I do remember the 2008-2014 penalty boxes that got brought over from overseas. They're largely no longer on the road anymore.

Anyone remember that one time Anon on /smg/ got access to a Bloomberg Terminal and started rassin' a bunch of wall street rats?

>>60586299
Doesn't matter what Americans hate. They will buy what they are sold / can afford. Americans are consumer cattle. They have no choice in the matter. Whatever is on a car lot is what they will buy. They can cry all they want. At the end of the day Americans will buy what they are sold.

Yes I remember he sent a message to Tony Dwyer asking about price targets, then later that day on CNBC Tony said something about having pricing targets

$BULL -Breakdown: What the $1B Equity Agreement Really Means.(Not dilution. Not a dump. Read this.)
What Happened?
Webull signed a $1B Standby Equity Purchase Agreement (SEPA) with Yorkville Advisors.
This allows (not requires) them to raise capital as needed by selling shares over time.
Why This Matters?
This is not a dilutive ATM or emergency raise. It’s a strategic growth weapon institutions buy shares directly, only when Webull chooses.
Key Facts:
– Float: 459M
– Agreement = ~17% of float (if fully used over time)
– No impact unless activated
– SEPA = institutional vote of confidence

Why It Pulled Back
Retail misreading the filing. Traders dumped assuming instant dilution — wrong.
Smart $ understands this is flexible capital, not a cash grab.
Smart Take:
This deal means Webull has institutional backing to fund product expansion and market share.
Price action now is just short-term supply fighting long-term strength.

anyone else avoid telling normalfags friends and family that you’re into stocks? I just hate always being asked “how have the stocks been?”

>>60586424
I rarely talk to my family anymore and I don't have any friends

>>60586424
>anyone else avoid telling normalfags friends and family that you’re into stocks?
I just tell them that I just DCA into dividend stocks because I have no risk tolerance. That ends the discussion pretty quickly.

>>60586424
no i like talking about things i like

>>60586424
pretty much, i only told my parents when they saw me looking at charts and news too often, and even then i told them to keep it quiet (i handle their stocks now)

How do stocks have any value? It's just a fucking piece of online paper. If a company gave out dividend then maybe I could understand. A lot don't though... I've seen the argument that the company could always be bought out, but a lot of companies are already too big to be bought... So why tf does number keep going up knowing you don't keep any of the profits nor will the company ever be bought out..

>>60586409
I use webull and people who blew up their accounts are fucking stupid because they ignored me talking about palantir at 15 but want to cry because they blew up their portfolio on Roblox stock and day trading during earnings meanwhile you could of just held NVDA or autozone and been up massively.

I don't think I've "made it" but I certainly tried my best to take advantage of a pretty chaotic few years. Could I have done better? Maybe gotten into crypto, made less bad investments here or there, or been more aggressive in borrowing or whatever? Sure but overall I think I did good. Not great. Not excellent. C+/B- grade probably.

For those that didn't invest, then I'd understand why they think it's a clown world that is going to shit because there was a pandemic, then war, then a lot of inflation, full of scam coins/spacs/longtermUStreasuries/fiat, very little stability, then rising debt costs, and lots of events coming out of left field.

>>60586599
>First step: Have $350,000 lying around.
>Noted.
You have to start somewhere. I made some decent money off the stock tips here. I still did my own research but the tips gave me ideas I would not have found on my own. When some of the stocks are in the $2-4 range and you hold for a few years you can make some good money. Look at RKLB, ASTS, RGTI, there are many that were cheap and did a 10x in a relatively short time. So that $5k spread across a couple different stocks can become $40k pretty quick. And, if you keep adding each month it really begins to grow. I wish I started a long time ago.

Weekend-Tesla futures are red (-2%)
kek, they'll do weekend-futures for everything

>>60586599
I worked for that money?
Also that 100K was for a down payment on a home which I couldn't buy and ended up paying like way over what I would have if I had just bought in 2019.

Also it's not like my investments all go up. 2020 I worked when others were just getting free stimmies, unemployment checks, school lunches, etcetc. 2021 I kept putting paychecks into the market. 2022/2023 I worked like mad since I needed more cash to buy the dip. 2024 was another up year but that didn't stop me from adding what I could.

But sure just

>>60586816
what is the actual story? how did /ourguy/ do it? the average smgger isnt allowed with 500ft of a school, much less a bloomberg terminal.

This might seem odd but let me give you a perspective from a poor country:

1) We had a stock market bubble in the last 25 years and it never recovered to those levels again
2) Our government bonds had a haircut (bankruptcy) in the last 20 years
3) Local banks offer investment products to normies with insane fees and almost zero real returns
4) Local banks do not offer access to normal ETFs and other index funds. People don't even know what they are.

The result is that most people's investment is real estate not stocks or bonds. It's an overcrowded trade so buying a home is absolutely not worth it from a purely financial point of view. Maybe that's why nobody is having kids.

>>60586406
I feel like I missed a lot of opportunities the last few years. Don’t get me wrong, I made some good buys way back and have a tax-sheltered portfolio which grew from an initial £10k investment to £370k ($500k to you Americlaps) over the last 15 years without any other payments in (several withdrawals in fact), but I spent the last several years being busy with young kids and missed a boatload of obvious opportunities. Had another £300k in cash from the sale of a family property just sitting in a basic savings account being eroded by inflation for the last 3 years, only just got round to badgering my relations to release the funds, which they dragged their feet about until after the markets had already bounced back from liberation day. I feel many regrets because although I’m not exactly poor, I feel like I could be sitting on a portfolio five times the size if I’d started paying a bit more attention to it a couple of years ago.

I can’t see how there can be that much prospect for growth in residential property with prices at the height of unafforbility, yields are shit, costs are high, it’s horribly illiquid, and it’s massively politically exposed if millennials eventually manage to elect the leftists who want to wage war on property investors. I have some property, but I’d really like to be rid of a lot of it. Tried to sell a flat in London recently, just couldn’t find a buyer at an acceptable price despite a supposed shortage of properties in the market, had to let it out again.

It's in the slowing down part of a roller coaster incline

>>60587058
The thing about property is if it goes to 0 you still have a house, and if its one you like it almost doesn't matter the price

If the left goes after property its most likely war imo. It would have to be a very, very slow process to avoid it

>>60587070
political pressure can force massive increases in property taxes and in extreme cases, land seizures

>>60587075
Yes and at least in the usa that would massively destabilizing, its something crazy like 70% of every person's money in their house

>>60587081
something is going to have to be done to deal with speculation in the housing market one way or another, for people who treat their house as a home and not an asset in a portfolio should be fine, in fact it's even better for them for their house value to go down as they will pay less in property taxes, most people are fine if overleveraged RE speculators lose money

>>60587091
I think you are misdiagnosing the problem. Speculation is not driving the value up, its not like 08 with ninja loans. It's a dollar problem which is why you see cars and gold going up too. There might be some locals like LA where it is actually a real estate problem but its not for the majority

>>60587104
In urban centers housing went up far more than equities and gold, so something is happening besides currency devaluation and lower borrowing rates

There's no question in my mind that bonds right now are as good as it's gonna get.
If yields stabilize and slowly drop over time the bonds will do well, if yields spike and the Fed intervenes to print money, bond yields will drop fast and bonds purchased now will do exceptionally well.

But the question is can you afford to stay out of this crazy bull market?
What if you stay out for 6 months and miss another +20% or whatever?

It's nuts but I feel that everyone knows it's frothy but because it keeps going higher, it's too expensive to stay out.

China is enron if enron owned the government and could make you disappear.
BYD for example has over $300 billion USD in debt to suppliers with a lag time of over 250 days on their payments. (Ford would have a lag time of under 60 days with their suppliers, for example)
But none of those suppliers would dare step out of line to challenge BYD for the money they’re owed so they will cuck and accept the “two more weeks” excuse on their payments indefinitely.
Zeihan is right, but is looking at things from a western PoV and underestimating just how long the chinese can FORCE the facade to keep going.
Invest accordingly.

>>60587907
I think you have to look a bit farther than the impending cut. I believe after that, sooner rather than later we will get a bad inflation print(historically there has never been just one) and you don't want to be holding bonds when that happens
